Hi Mia

welcome to the forum albeit under such circumstances.  I don't have the same cancer but wanted to drop by to say hello and wish you well as your journey continues.  This forum is a great source of information and support by both moderators, nurses and members.  I am pretty sure that before long someone who can relate to your type of cancer will be along to share experiences and have a chit chat :)

Hi Mia,

My name is Susan I am 42 years old and my mam has just been diagnosed yesterday with we think stage 1 ductal breast cancer, seeing the surgeon tomorrow to find out more, but looks likw the operation will take place in 4 weeks. Its such a hard and unnerving time but its just to let you know other people are thinking of you. You'll get thorugh this just like many other women and my mam.

Hi Susan,

Thank you so much for your reply and good wishes. I am sorry to hear about your mum's diagnosis. I hope all goes well with the surgery. It is a scary time but trying to remain positive side to get through. Keep me posted :)

Hello Mia,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. Hopefully you will meet others here who have recently had a similar diagnosis and have started chemotherapy treatment and I am sure they will be happy to share their experience with you and answer any question you may have.

In the meantime, I thought this link on breast cancer chemotherapy would be useful to you. We also have some diet-related recommendations here - if you have any question at any point on your treatment or on anything, feel free to give our friendly nurses a call. You can reach them on this free number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Best wishes,

Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
